[Clinico-epidemiological characteristics of diseases caused by halophilic vibrios along the coast of the Sea of Azov].

The epidemiological and clinical features of alimentary toxinfections caused by halophilic vibrios on the Crimean coast of the Sea of Azov at the period of 1976-1984 were studied. Toxinfections were linked mainly with the use of sea-food subjected to different kinds of culinary treatment and took the course of gastroenteritis. To prevent toxinfections caused by halophilic vibrios, the technology, as well as sanitary and hygienic norms, should be strictly observed in the production of sea-food; besides, special methods of bacteriological diagnosis should be introduced into practice at laboratories of medical institutions and fish-processing plants.

[Isolation of halophilic vibrios from humans and the environment].

Both biotypes of halophilous vibrios, V. parahaemolyticus and V. alginolyticus, have been found to cause intestinal diseases among the inhabitants of the littoral localities of the Crimea. These diseases mostly assume the form of acute gastroenteritis and alimentary toxic infections. Most frequently people contact infection by using sea food. It is suggested that the etiological unraveling of intestinal infections may be improved by introducing the method for the isolation of halophilous vibrios into laboratory practice.

[Experience with the elimination of a cholera focus in a psychiatric clinic and the measures for its prevention].

The epidemic process of cholera in a mental-hospital setting is to a great extent influenced by specific factors. In view of a danger of cholera being brought into a mental in-patient facility the authors insist, based on their own experience, that in summer and autumn seasons in South regions and urban settlements with unstable, in respect of cholera, epidemic situation, not only patients with intestinal disfunction be examined for cholera but all those individuals to be managed at above facility. It is all-important for a mental hospital to have a plan at their disposal of primary antiepidemic measures to be instituted in case dangerous infections will pose too difficult a problem to deal with, with pharmacy being envisaged, provided with all the stores required.
